About Discovery of Geminus
Earth has a twin, and it is called Geminus
In a vision, 15-year-old Henry Brooks discovers Geminus, a twin world to Earth powered by spirit and magic instead of materialism and technology. He travels to this new land with his friends Kate, Max, and his faithful dog Rocky.
Upon his return to Earth, Henry accidentally gives away his secret to Marcus, a deceitful and power-hungry boy who exploits the wealth of Geminus by introducing Earth weapons that upset the delicate balance of power.
Gonzalo Pizzaro, the bloodthirsty conquistador, discovered Geminus while on his quest for the Fountain of Eternal Youth. Using the Fountain’s waters, he and his crew have stayed alive for over 400 years, plotting to conquer Geminus and Earth. With Henry’s unwitting help, Pizzaro sets his plan in motion, bringing death and destruction to peaceful Geminus.
Feeling responsible for fixing the disaster he created, Henry sets off on a quest to make things right. He becomes an apprentice to Father Antonio, an eccentric shaman with tremendous powers; he learns the path of Spirit from mystical creatures such as Sasquatches and Yetis and meets Grace, an enchanting farm girl who steals his heart.
Together with his friends, Henry overcomes dangerous challenges, learns from magical creatures, and uses his newly discovered shamanic powers to save Geminus and Earth.
